Reseña del editor:

Prosperity Unbound is a provocative new look at real estate and "unreal estate", a problem that afflicts half the world's property owners, living and working outside the formal structures of society. As a World Bank economist in the 1990s, and later as an investment advisor on deregulation, the author has seen first-hand how "unreal estate" distorts and suppresses property values and stunts the development of property markets. Working with the investment finance industry, governments, and owners, and by marrying theory and practice, she has devised an analytical solution - one that was successful in the case of Peru. It may be applied just as successfully elsewhere, unlocking value and opening the door to unbound prosperity. Prosperity Unbound sheds light on a subject that has long been ignored or dismissed by traditional economists and offers practical guidance for policy makers, government officials, private investors and entrepreneurs who want to create or strengthen property markets and transform "unreal estate" to real estate.
